On board after a long time during which a lot have happened: the old girl was stolen, but got it back a few days after with a lot of her plastics damaged, anyway... Hannesf a friend of mine who is a mechanic and with access to a workshop said it can be done (it was his suggestion after all ) but i trashed the idea and just looking for a good rear shock or an alternative one that fits the dimensions.

Hey jibber thanks mate, nice ones but for half the price i found a new old stock one, and for a little less from that a good used WP one but that is from a xt600z and is longer (42 vs 32.5) and dont know if and how it will fit.
